JF, <OK, so you give these guys their salary, but you don't give them bonuses, and you don't double their stock option grants.> Well ... there are two ways to judge the doubling of stock options, IMO: 1) Pulling Intel through a downturn is rough, and if the execs can pull it off, more power to them. 2) The extra options are making up for existing options that are now underwater and will probably expire worthless over this decade. You can make your own judgement. #1 would be justifyable, but #2 wouldn't, IMHO. Keep in mind, though, that we employees have also received more than our regular dose of options in 2001 and 2002.
